Santigold Producing Devo

Generation-crossing new wave forces unite.

Tucked deep within a recent article in Paste magazine is the news that new wave revivalist Santigold is doing production work for new wave originators Devo. Talking about the experience, Santi told Paste: "It was amazing. They're my band idols. Them and the Smiths. I made them pull out the red hats and pose for a picture." Understandable.

No word yet on where the collaboration will end up, exactly. Meanwhile, Santi is working hard on her next album, which is due sometime this year.
